S13 or S14? If S13, then you won't be getting a "Silvia conversion" as all S13 blacktops are 180SX, S13 Silvia clips will all be redtops. if S14, then it's not really a "Silvia conversion" since the only visual difference is the bumper.

only 94-and-up 180s had the blacktop, it was red like the silvia for 91-93...

check out srswap.com (heavy throttle), their FAQ goes into a bit more detail.
